59 is the first Prime number after 55.
55 is not a prime number because you can do 5*11=55. The definition of a prime number is a number that has only the factors of 1 and itself. Because 55 has 1*55-55 AND 5*11=55 it is not a prime number. Hope that helps!!
To find a prime number that results from subtracting from 55, consider the prime numbers less than 55. The largest prime less than 55 is 53. Therefore, if you subtract 2 from 55 (55 - 2 = 53), the result is a prime number. Other prime numbers like 47 (which results from subtracting 8) also work.
67 is the greatest prime number between 55 and 70
The Prime Factors are: 5 x 11
53

55 = 5 * 11
To find the prime factorization of a number, start with any factor pair of that number and keep factoring the composite numbers until all factors are prime. 55 5 x 11 = 55 Both factors are prime, so that is the prime factorization.
The Prime Factors are: 5 x 11
1,5,11,55 and it is a prime number
Prime factorization means to change a composite number into the product of its prime factors as for example 55 as a product of its prime factors is 5*11 = 55
770. To find the least common multiple, factor each number to its prime factors and then multiply all the factors from the first number with any factors in the second number that are not repeated from the first number. The prime factors of 14 are 2 and 7. The prime factors of 55 are 5 and 11. Multiply 2 x 7 x 5 x 11 and you get 770.
71 is prime. 55 is not a prime number. Its positive integer factors are 11 and 5. The number 71, meanwhile, is prime, as it has no positive integer factors other than itself and 1.
The first step in finding the factors of a number is to break it down into its prime factors. 55 is known from times tables to be 5x11, so we know its prime factorization is 5x11. To find any factors other than 1, you just multiply any combination of the prime factors together. In this case, 55 gives us the factors of: 1, 5, 11 and 55.
